How to practice punching a sandbag

Nowadays, many people like to do activities such as fitness, and most of them are motivated by the desire to attract other people's attention. There are many ways to exercise, and how we choose depends on our own situation. Let’s take a brief look at how to practice hitting sandbags.

1. Fixed hitting method: someone can hold the sandbag and the practitioner can hit it accurately. This is the initial stage, which can make the practitioner experience the power of fists and feet, the integrity of movements, the control of distance, etc.; those who have unclear ideas about kicking, wrong power, inaccurate distance control and deviation in striking position during training are often easily knocked down by the reaction force at this stage, and feel pain at the striking point, etc.; those who do not exert power correctly and easily find their own striking shortcomings or weak striking, and have to stand one step forward to hit the sandbag before taking a step forward to hit; until they can experience the sense of distance through striking, can use the force of their whole body, and the person holding the sandbag can feel the penetrating power, whipping power, and vibration of the sandbag, and can complete strikes with obvious skills, then they will move on to hitting the movable sandbag.

2. Hitting a live sandbag: A live sandbag is harder to hit than a fixed one. The sandbag is shaking, and you may hit it once, miss once, or deviate once; you may use all your strength but still not be able to unleash any power. At this time, you should do more air strikes, master the key points of the movements and power, and experience the coordination of fighting and footwork; step forward to strike, step back to strike, meet the attack head-on, strike continuously, whip with the front leg, etc., so that the strikes are rich and varied, and then you can understand the magic of fighting. During practice, you should kick while moving. You don't have to hit hard every time. You can use 30-50% of your force. The key is to see whether 30-50% of the force is completely penetrated into the sandbag at the moment of hitting the sandbag. Learn to grasp the moment of exerting force.

3. Before hitting the sandbag, beginners should first stretch their bodies, especially their wrists and ankles. It is best to feel a slight heat and sweat all over the body. Prepare a pair of boxing bandages, wrap your hands carefully, wrap them all the way to your wrist joints, and then put on appropriate practice gloves. Move around the sandbag and sway your body. When hitting the sandbag, do not use all your strength to punch hard. Whether it is a jab, hook, or swing, do not use too much force and standardize your movements.

The above is a relatively simple answer to the question of how to practice hitting a sandbag. There are more and more ways to exercise now, and we need to be careful when choosing. We should maintain good living and eating habits and avoid smoking and drinking. Such bad habits are harmful to our bodies.
